Lyrics
We'd be better off as strangers
We would be better off not knowing each other well.
Always liked the taste of danger
Always enjoyed the thrill of risky situations.
Our love is so explosive
Describing the intensity of their love as highly energetic and potentially destructive.
He's trouble and he knows it
The person she loves is troublesome, and he's aware of it.
Now I've got this bad feeling in my gut
Feeling a negative premonition or instinct in her stomach.
And that should be a reason good enough
The gut feeling should be a significant reason to reconsider the relationship.
We don't take it slow he likes it rough
The relationship is not slow-paced; it involves rough and intense moments.
I'm used to being hurt babe
She is accustomed to emotional pain in relationships.
I've grown to feel like i deserve this
She has developed a sense of deserving the pain she experiences.
I just wanna know how to love myself
Expressing a desire to learn how to love herself.
Love myself
Reaffirming the need to love herself.
And somehow i know I've got to change this
Recognizing the necessity for change in her life.
I get myself into the same shit
She repeatedly finds herself in similar problematic situations.
I just wanna know how to love myself
Reiterating the desire to learn self-love.
Love myself
Emphasizing the importance of self-love.
When i find the strength to leave him
When she decides to leave, he persuades her to return.
He pulls me back and says i need him
He claims that she needs him, influencing her decisions.
It's never my decision
Her choices are often influenced by others, not truly her own.
Just take what I've been given
Accepting what is given to her without making her own choices.
So I ignore that feeling in my heart
Ignoring the feeling that suggests they are better off apart.
That's telling me we'd make more sense apart
Her heart tells her they would make more sense separated, but she ignores it.
We've ended up right back at the start
The relationship is stuck in a repetitive cycle.
I'm through with being hurt babe
She is done with the cycle of being emotionally hurt.
I've grown to feel like i deserve this
Feeling like she deserves the emotional pain.
I just wanna know how to love myself
Expressing the desire to learn how to love herself once again.
Love myself
Reiterating the importance of self-love.
And somehow i know I've got to change this
Acknowledging the need for change in her life.
I get myself into the same shit
Finding herself in repeated problematic situations.
